The Real L Word by Showtime teaser and behind the scenes

In the words of one of the cast, the show is a reality show about real lesbians in Los Angeles. There’s Mikey, Whitney, Rose, Tracy, Nikki and Jill and it’s strange because it is essentially similar to The L Word in feel, but of course it is a reality show. Like The L Word, The...

Three Rivers debut not great for CBS

The early ratings are in for the debut of new Alex O’Loughlin medical drama Three Rivers and it’s not great news. The show which centers on the lives of doctors dealing with organ transplants came in last for its timeslot. Needless to say NFL came in top of the ratings unsurprisingly, with Desperate Housewives still...

Three Rivers starring Alex O’Loughlin preview by CBS

I know we’ve got a few Alex O’Loughlin fans in these parts, so I’ve scoured around looking for a preview of his new show Three Rivers and found one, huzzah!!

Jennifer Beals joins Lie to Me as Tim Roth’s ex

The L Word finale a short retrospective complaint

  So who else watched the finale of lesbian TV extravaganza The L Word this week (well the weekend in the US). I just got through watching it and it has to be said it was pretty much a disaster from beginning to end. There were loads of complaints I personally had about the episode...

The L Word lipstick lesbians

Yes, it’s been the obvious tie-in for years, the show about lipstick lesbians getting their own lipstick range, but strangely it’s take until now for The L Word to hook up with a cosmetics company. With the show about to air it’s final episode this week, The L Word will soon leave a lasting legacy...

The L Word whodunit – A tedious bore

Spoilers about this season ahead: The L Word writers are rubbish this season. There, I said it. The final season of the show has become nothing more than a farce with ridiculous storylines, characters acting completely against the grain of their personality and more. It seems to me that the writers decided a great way...
